For Teachers / School Staff

All Educate Together schools are non fee paying national schools. Staff in our schools work under the same terms and conditions as all staff in the primary education sector. Teachers and staff in Educate Together schools often get asked what it's like to work there. In an effort to inform and reassure, we asked a bunch of Educate Together teachers why they liked working in Educate Together schools. Have a look at their answers:

Careers

As the Educate Together school network is steadily growing, both in new schools and school expansions, employment opportunities for mainstream, resource teachers and special needs assistants will become available. Details of these opportunities are available on www.educationposts.ie, and positions within the National Office or for leadership roles within our network are available on our Careers page. Educate Together also operates its own panel for teacher recruitment.

Curriculum

Teachers in Educate Together schools teach the national curriculum using active learning techniques. The Learn Together moral and ethical curriculum is taught for 2.5 hours a week during school hours in place of religious instruction.

Teacher Resource Bank

Teachers can access downloadable lessons and other resources for teaching the four strands of the Learn Together at the Learn Together Resource Bank.

The Resource Bank is made up of five lists:

Resources for teaching the Moral and Spiritual strand of the Learn Together

Resources for teaching the Equality and Justice strand of the Learn Together

Resources for teaching the Belief Systems strand of the Learn Together

Resources for teaching the Ethics and the Environment strand of the Learn Together
